About Fasulìn de l'öc

In the heart of autumn, Pizzighettone celebrates a traditional dish from the Cremona countryside: "fasulìn de l'öc cun le cudeghe", meaning beans with pork rind. In the heated casemates of the ancient Walls, over several weekends between late October and early November, more than a thousand seats welcome visitors to enjoy typical specialties. Organized by the Gruppo Volontari Mura (Wall Volunteers Group), the event donates its proceeds to the restoration of the town walls.

A dish from the Cremona tradition

"Fasulìn de l'öc cun le cudeghe" – beans with pork rind – is a simple, iconic dish from the peasant cuisine of the lower Cremona region. In Pizzighettone (province of Cremona), this specialty gives its name to one of the most cherished gastronomic festivals in the area.

In the casemates of the Walls

The event takes place in the atmospheric heated casemates of Pizzighettone's ancient Walls, a cozy and characteristic setting that offers over a thousand seats, about 560 of which can be reserved. The format, spread over several weekends, allows a large number of visitors to enjoy traditional dishes in a convivial atmosphere.

Solidarity and Wall Restoration

The festival is organized by the Gruppo Volontari Mura (GVM) of Pizzighettone, an association that has been dedicated to enhancing the local historical heritage for decades. The proceeds from the event are indeed destined for the restoration of the town walls, a collective effort that links the festival to its civic purpose.

An established tradition

Now in its 34th edition, the event is a regular fixture of the Pizzighettone autumn, attracting food lovers from all over the Cremona province and beyond.
